This week's Macroeconomics Seminar invites Federica Romei of University of Oxford.

Federica’s primary fields of research are in monetary economics and international economics. Her research touches upon many topics. First, she analyses what are optimal policies when the central bank is constrained in its conduct by the presence of the zero-lower bound. Second, she studies the global impact of prudential policies that are optimal from the perspective of individual countries. Third, she investigates the interaction between sovereign default risk and the conduct of monetary policy, when borrowers share with their lenders a single currency in a monetary union. Finally, she studies the optimal exchange rate policy in the presence of heterogeneous agents and market incompleteness.

 

Please note that this is an internal event for School of Economics personnel.
